Is McDonalds American ethnic food?

Question

Would McDonalds be considered American ethnic food?

Answer 1

God, let's hope not.  Interestingly, much of what's considered American food is far from it.  The hamburger, invented in Germany, was originally a dish of chopped pork bearing little resemblance to the hamburger we know and love.  Of course, the hamburger we know today was first assembled in America.  French fries are distinctly French, known as pomme frite. Let's hope the world doesn't see American food as all McDonald's.
